Our new deep protein structure representation layer, BioBlobs is out on arXiv. Protein function operates by coordinating cohesive substructure modules shaped by evolution. Current protein representation methods break proteins down into rigidly shaped and sized blocks. Would you

It was an honor to contribute a small part to this expansive and highly insightful look at the current state of ML-assisted RNA drug design led by @MalletVincent and Wissam Karroucha. Most exciting is a new benchmark on virtual screening specificity (including Boltz2).

Gratitude without God is irrational. What sense does it make to give thanks for a mindless, inevitable outcome? "The worst moment for an atheist is when he is really thankful and has no one to thank.” - GK Chesterton

A man who demands proof that angels exist has already killed every angel in a thousand-mile radius. The fool dissecting wonder to find where wonder lives is like a man cutting open his wife's chest to find where she keeps her love for him

PhD fits best within a monastic framework. A return to such a framework is also the only way to rescue its value. Instead it has become a 4 year underpaid skills training to be spent in an LED-irradiated glass box drinking red bull. A PhD in its truest form is a journey

There is sometimes confusion about what a PhD is. The main signal that you should derive from the fact that someone has a PhD is that they are well suited to the university campus environment. Having a PhD is not overly uncommon. Over 3% of the population in a country like

I quite enjoyed all 5 papers I reviewed for ICLR 2026. The biomolecule×AI field is maturing nicely.

Big week for https://t.co/NgIKTHpBNF! 1. Proteinshake has officially broken into the graph learning field with a new preprint from Wiens and @danaikoutra labs. Major step for sorely needed realistic graph-ML benchmarks ( https://t.co/K1Ojqyu1rw). 2. Structure-based benchmarking

The spiritual awakening nobody talks about is the one where you realize God has been orchestrating black swan events in your life specifically to destroy every false thing you built your identity on, and what you thought was bad luck was actually precision demolition. The reason

We have a new version of the rnaglib benchmarking preprint and it contains some interesting new insights on RNA structure-function modeling: - Splitting by structure is generally more difficult - The 2.5D graph (secondary structure + non-canonical base pairs) beats

Master the sciences, master the arts. Become a polymath and a polyglot. A hacker and a pianist. An entrepreneur and a poet. A mathematician and a writer. An investor and an athlete. A physicist and a historian. Embrace the Greco-Roman ideal of being a well-balanced man.
